96. The Value of Knowing Your Business Valuation—Laurie Barkman, CEO, SmallDotBig
If you were to decide you were ready to exit out of your business today, do you know what it is worth? Have you had a professional evaluation done? If you have not you should look to have one done. In fact, since my interview with Laurie, I decided to follow her advice and start that process just to know and have an understanding.
Our guest today is Laurie Barkman. She is a business transition sherpa and is the founder of SmallDotBig where she advises owners on having more valuable, sellable businesses. She is also a partner at a boutique M&A firm and hosts the Succession Stories Podcast. Laurie’s experience as a CEO of a privately held company that was acquired inspired what she does today.
